pokemon rejuvenation sideblog. content will be mostly focused on it.
more information about those who run this account underneath the cut.
interceptor x melia shipping will be muted/blocked/not reblogged here due to personal preference.
unfortunately for everyone involved, i selfship with melia and this will affect how i post about her (i very frequently call her "my wife" because i do actually see us as. well, dating)
we are a system; this blog will mostly be used by seren & merry, but occasionally some of our other headmates might pop in to post too
the above probably wont be noticed though. it wont be tagged at all
this covers spoilers for both paragon and renegade!
my vision for crescent/venam dating during the timeskip pictured above. for some reason, I've been really enjoying pairing cres with other characters recently.. (another crackship i came up with is her and novae. fluffy cosmic yuri <3)
another potential dynamic I'm a Huge Huge Huge fan of is kania & zenos.
unfortunately another screenshot, i used up all my brain juice to make the big post yesterday.... but i do think as unfortunate as it is for everyone involved these two deserve to shatter some worlds together. enrichment!
sketching. I dont wanna finish this yet until we get (if we get) character artwork for them, because if i get any details wrong doing work off of the sprites alone i’m gonna cry my eyes out haha. working their hair out has been a definite trial and error process lmao
in my fucked up and evil deltaruned brain its venam = kris / melia = susie / noelle = playername. this only works because i think the dynamics triangle is kind of similar
ranting a bit about venamelia. tumblr deleted the better version of this post for some reason, so i apologize if it's scatterbrained or my arguments arent as good as before.
this covers spoilers in paragon chapter16/v14. please only read if you completed it!
venam and melia are no doubt characters that can stand pretty proudly on their own, but i think its undeniable that their relationship with eachother is a huge part of their character as well.
one of the reasons i see thrown around for not liking them is how "abrupt their relationship feels" which i disagree with; its been hinted at all the way back in terajuma (and before if you squint) and even moreso in previous versions of the game. but i don't like that argument specifically because of chapter twelve, relevantly titled "remember, i love you."
.this part is also why I'm going to debunk the apparent argument against them of "their age gap is weird, so you can't ship them!" not only do i think the story blatantly proves this is false on multiple occasions, one of which being that they Do canonically date, it is very weird to me you are trying to turn the only canonically sapphic ship in the main story predatory.
continuing with chapter 12, venam's confession to melia (being on her mind As she was turned to stone, a fate she Knew had no real cure) is the title of the chapter.
one of melia's main motivations during the bad future segment is the fact that she couldn't abandon venam, wanting to save her at "any cost necessary" and chasing any sort of answer related to her petrification at all. she wanted to return to her time, For Venam.
i'm unable to get a screenshot of this, but i do think it is also worth mentioning that melia's reaction to lavender's phonecall with this information directly parallels venam's reaction to melia's death in the early game; they mentally shut down, and try to go on with ther lives like it never happened.
i just really don't think you read the story correctly if you believe with all your heart these two don't have any chemistry. particularly a lot of venam's dialogue during the terajuma arc stands out to me, especially the dialogue when melia's stopped before the summit after defeating eli and sharon.
melia's words after kania rips the archetype after her stick out to me as well; she apologized to Venam specifically, and nobody else. subconsciously, they're always on eachother's mind. melia's the reason venam's inspired to grow as a person; venam's the reason melia's drive to seek a better future was ignited in the first place.
....so, basically, i'm really not a fan of how people act with these two. they're very obviously meant to be a couple at the most, and paired characters at the least, and i feel as though erasing that part of them would be erasing and misunderstanding a big part of them.
and as a bonus, here's some misc dialogue I'm very fond of c:
thank you for reading this far! please appreciate these two as much as i do..
